Of blows of state and other gajes

After the report of the Truth Commission came out, we have been able to read in detail the testimonies of those who were on one side or the other in what was the democratic crisis in Honduras in the last two years.

The report does not say many things that we did not know, the great conclusion is that everyone is guilty of something that is already amnestied. But it is still productive to read the testimonies of the people who appear there, and that clears us questions Who was in the process, as well as how the media conceal information when it suits them and the they interpret according to the wheel of his mill. The report has also called a coup what is a coup and has defined existing weaknesses in the institutional framework and legislation ... we will see what is done with this.

After two years of discomfort, in which we all suffer in one way or another from the intolerances of a few, it remains to be seen if the productive result is really favorable in a whit. However, the damage to the bipartisanship that may be caused by the formation of new political forces is in my opinion the best result. Now it remains to be seen how these movements begin to counterbalance, purify themselves and formalize their intentions in solid proposals to combat corruption, political patronage and economic development.

Talk to a friend who lost his job because of direct of the coupWell, the transnational company for which I worked took flight as part of its policies of not investing in a politically unstable country, and telling it that there is profit from this has almost cost me my friendship. Especially since that was two years ago, time that he has invested in looking for a new job with the same effort as if that were one.

These are things that happen in a particular way on both sides. The perspective of those who take refuge behind our occupations can be cold, and it should not, because passivity is usually a way of life due to excess neutrality. Anyway, you have to find spaces for participation, because no one wants everything to be the same after going through so much.

Hopefully and it comes for the better, with the necessary convulsions, but without the extremes that forced me to migrate one day, and that I would do again for the same reason… the family. Focusing on the fight and concern for this issue is an attitude to take care of strategically; We must not lose the perspective of the context, we must not stop enjoying the satisfactory things that our family relationships cause due to issues that are the consequence of years of malpractice and that will not change overnight.

One must be optimistic, but not blind; recalling that in these countries, the people can fight against sticks in the streets In parades, parades and demonstrations that bring family divisions sometimes irreconcilable ... can even go to the mountain taking up arms and in the end, up four agree and arrange everything with a public hug.

So ...

I've taken the afternoon to go to the park, enjoy Air1 from the ipad, take several photos of my creatures in the maneuvers of their bikes and ropes in the tree. It seems like yesterday that I taught them to take their first pedal strokes.

Then I turned off the tablet, put the phone in the car, and we lay on the grass to see figures in the clouds with the same innocence that I did 30 years ago… although now there are more Marvel and Capcom figures than zoo animals. That and the touches to the soul of the girl that lights up my eyes, she definitely does not know of coups.

With this article I close the subject of the coup, of which I spoke a, otra, and more than another time.

If I open it again, it will be because there is another blow ... which could be in a couple of months for what Colonel Buendía says in his Lucidity moments.
